your time is up ❤

casual displays of affection

sharing a bed because “we’ve been doing it since we were kids”

platonic cuddling 12/10 times that a bed is shared… totally platonic…

that thing where they lay down and one person is lying perpendicular to the other with their head on the other’s stomach u feel

casual displays of affection

late night deep talks (a rooftop setting optional)

“i know you better than i know myself”

saying i love you to each other thinking the other person means “only as a friend/sibling” when no they mean romantically

calling the other person “home”

laying their head on the other person’s shoulder

forehead/cheek/temple/top of head kisses

super tight hugs where one or both “feels safe”

pet names/nicknames/referring to the other as “my (person’s name)”

CASUAL DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION

missing the other person whenever they’re not around more than best friends probs should

trusting each other so easily so effortlessly bc it’s second nature

literally just?? the fact that they’re best friends?????

“i’ve always loved you” / “i have loved you all my life”

Plot idea number 1 - Marrying my friend. 

Muse A and Muse B are best friends. One day at the end of a mutual friend’s wedding Muse A, worried that she won’t ever find anyone to share her life with and that she will grow old on her own, starts moping. Muse B comes up with an idea; If they both are not married when they are thirty years old, they will just marry each other. Years later they, still not married,  Muse B shows up at Muse A’s thirtieth birthday and proposes. This is when Muse A remembers about their past promise. 

Option 1: Muse A is actually in a relationship - just not married. Muse B knows this but still wants to come back on their promise for his best friend is not married yet and he secretly always had a thing for her. What will Muse A do?

Option 2: Muse A does remember and has been excited for days, yet now it is her birthday she is actually worried about it, afraid Muse B has forgotten about their promise. It is only later that night when he does propose.
